Cost effective materials alwaysinterested builders. Their use reduces the complexity of work and cost. Currently, a lot of materials are used that are cheaper than the usual products, and their use can significantly accelerate the pace of construction of buildings. They also include gypsum blocks.
Advantages of gypsum products
The best proof of the benefits of usingThe following example serves as a block of gypsum: 20 single-red bricks or 14 silicate products can be replaced with just one slab. If you later need to plaster the brick surface, which is not cheap at all, then the wall made of gypsum blocks is almost ready for the final finishing - painting and wallpapering. It is only necessary to seal the seams and polish them. Another advantage of the use of gypsum products is an increase in the speed of installation and its simplicity.
Thanks to this, it is possible to build partitions of any type:
- Single.
- Duals.
- Figured.
Low weight of products, their environmental friendliness, the possibilityuse in any premises make gypsum blocks an indispensable material for the construction of new or repair of existing facilities. Another important advantage that the gypsum block possesses is the price. Depending on the region and the manufacturer, the cost of one product ranges from 165 to 197 rubles.
General information
Gypsum is the main material from whichmake plates. Why was this material chosen for the production of products that are so necessary for the construction industry? This was facilitated by important, in terms of economy, ecology and safety, properties:
- Fire resistance.
- Lack of toxic components.
- Dielectric characteristics.
- Acidity, similar to the acidity of the human body.
- High gas and vapor permeability.
- Lack of smell.
Pazogrebnevy blocks are monolithic products fromconstruction plaster. They have the shape of a parallelepiped and differ in very accurate dimensional indicators. In production, natural gypsum is subjected to low-temperature processing to produce structures.
Available in conventional products and capableresist moisture. In order to obtain a moisture-resistant product, the hydrophobic components are introduced into the molding compound, due to which the water-absorbing properties of the products are significantly reduced.
Despite the use of additives, moisture resistantproducts by all indicators do not differ from the usual - it also "breathes", has environmental friendliness and has the same properties, but it is excellent against moisture. And all because the additives are Portland cement and blast-furnace slag in the granules - environmentally friendly materials. To distinguish moisture-resistant gypsum blocks from conventional products, they are painted in a light green color during manufacture.
Application area
Gypsum blocks are used for partitions and the construction of curtain walls. Since products of different thickness are on sale, they can be selected for use in the construction of any buildings:
- housing;
- industrial type facilities;
- public buildings;
- structures for other purposes (warehouses, warehouses, etc.)
- medical institutions;
- kindergartens, schools.
The type of products (single or double) depends on the regulatory requirements for sound and vapor insulation to a specific object or the need for placement inside the wall structures of communications.
Specifications
Regardless of the type, both ordinary and moisture-resistant tongue-and-groove blocks have almost the same characteristics:
- Dimensions - 8x50x66.7 cm. Possible deviations from dimensions - 0.5x1.0x1.5 mm.
- Plate weight - 27 kg.
- The square meter of the partition weighs about 82 kg.
- Radiation indicators - class "A".
- The spread of fire in the range of 0.0 m.
- Water absorption: ordinary - 23-25%, waterproof - no more than 5%.
- Compressive strength - 4.4 MPa.
- Density (in kg per 1 cubic meter / m) - 1000.
For easy storage and transportation of plasterThe blocks are packed in packages of 15 plates. Then they are placed on wooden pallets, 2 packages each. Packed in this way, the product has a height of 1 m and weighs 870 kg with the pallet. To leave products for storage, you must lay them on the edge. The height of the stack should not exceed 1.5 m, so that the products are not deformed, otherwise it will lead to a loss of both external indicators and strength.
